Passing Arguments

[jbkc85]

Hi,

I am having a few issues with passing in arguments. I am using the 'flag' package in my program and here is the help output:

[~/repositories/goprojects]$ ./bin/servServices -h
Usage of ./bin/servServices:
  -file.config string
    	Location of config.json for servServices [Default: /etc/serv/config.json]
  -port string
    	Specify port for HTTP to Listen On.  [Default: 8081] (default "8081")
  -telemetry.endpoint string
    	Path under which to expose Metrics. (default "/metrics")
  -verbose
    	Enable Verbose Output of Script. [Default: false]

Here is my realize.yaml:

settings:
  resources:
    output: outputs.log
    log: logs.log
  server:
    enable: true
    open: false
    host: localhost
    port: 5000
  config:
    flimit: 0
projects:
- name: servServices
  path: /Users/jbkc85/repositories/goprojects/src/repository.local/jbkc85/servServices
  run: true
  bin: true
  generate: false
  build: false
  fmt: true
  test: false
  params:
  - -file.config /Users/jbkc85/repositories/goprojects/src/repository.local/jbkc85/servServices/config.json
  - -verbose
  watcher:
    before: []
    after: []
    paths:
    - /
    ignore_paths:
    - vendor
    exts:
    - .go
    preview: false
  cli:
    streams: true
  file:
    streams: false
    logs: false
    errors: false

However, my output is constantly showing that the argument isn't found:

[09:05:03][SERVSERVICES] : flag provided but not defined: -file.config /Users/jbkc85/repositories/goprojects/src/repository.local/jbkc85/servServices/config.json

[09:05:03][SERVSERVICES] :   -port string
[09:05:03][SERVSERVICES] :     	Specify port for HTTP to Listen On. (default "8081")
[09:05:03][SERVSERVICES] :   -telemetry.endpoint string

[09:05:03][SERVSERVICES] :   -verbose
[09:05:03][SERVSERVICES] :     	Enable Verbose Output of Script. [Default: false]
[09:05:03][SERVSERVICES] : Ended

Is there something I am doing wrong? Does Realize not support these types of flags yet?

Thanks,
Jason Cameron

This should be the same situation, isn't it?

Ah, it does appear if you use the '=' sign it solves the issue.

- -file.config=.....

Is this an issue with the YAML syntax or how the program reads it? Just asking out of curiosity.

[asoseil]

the issue is probably related to the os/exec library with the cli library.

[jbkc85]

actually that makes perfect sense. I will go ahead and close the ticket, though it might be a feature request for either finding those issues and replacing them with '=' or trying to handle it in the future. Regardless, thanks for the replies!
